BEIJING, March 20 (TMTPOST) -- The 2022 Winter Paralympic Games came to an end recently in Beijing, with "hopes fo peace" serving as the outgoing message. Athletes and sports fans across the globe celebrated the moment together, appreciating the great sportsmanship that athletes from different countries had displayed on the snow and the ice.

Behind the scenes, many incredible technological applications helped athletes become safer and stronger and the screen before global viewers more vivid and engaging.
Here is a recap of some of the futuristic technological applications that helped China run splendid winter games.

The restaurant was run by robots only.
The 3,680-square-meter restaurant had a ceiling-mounted robot arm system, which was used to deliver food from the kitchen to designated tables. Athletes just wait for their food at the table after placing an order.
The smart restaurant provided 24-hour seven-day dining services, offering breakfast, lunch, dinner, afternoon tea and night snacks for its customers. 
The robots-run restaurant also played a major role in preventing potential spread of Covid-19.
The futuristic cooking and dining system was incredibly efficient. For instance, it took the burger-making robot only 20 seconds to toast the bread, cook up a meat pie and add vegetables and sauce to the burger. The entire burger-making process was standardized, which ensured the quality of the burgers and increased efficiency.
A robot staff for security, logistics and sterilizationIt is not uncommon to see robots in daily scenarios nowadays. For instance, during the pandemic, some hotels that serve as quarantine facilities would deploy robots to deliver food and daily necessities to its customers. In shopping malls, it is also common to see robots that serve as navigation assistants, showing the way for shoppers. At the 2022 winter games, we also saw a fleet of robots that was tasked with a variety of responsibilities to help maintain the operation of the competition.
In the sporting arena, security robots would patrol automatically and record suspicious movements. Unlike conventional robots that could patrol only a set route, the advanced robots at the winter games were equipped with ToF sensors, lidar and smart obstacle avoiding system that enabled them to adroitly maneuver around. These robots could detect obstacles beforehand and avoid the obstacles by circumventing or stopping.
